A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.

Only saw a little of it yesterday, didn't see Iceland though. I wasn't that impressed though - style of music is a matter of taste, but whatever the style they should be able to sing - if it goes on like that I'll be in the eurovision in a few years!

Actually - I do remember having to watch it one year when the Greek contingent were over here on holiday - and we all had to vote for the Greek Song - can't remember what it was - so that left a lasting impression then :?

I'm at work Saturday evening/night - I'm hoping it'll keep people indoors and out of trouble. It's a big thing over here!

That's the trouble Spooky.We,me and you oh and Gardner of course,are probably more European thinking than others on this site.
That gives us an advantage i suppose.You know more open in our thinking etc etc. It's probably the reason why we consider it,the festival,an important event on our calendar.

But they're completely different things, snacks are things like sandwiches, nibbles are things like peanuts, peanut sandwiches are snabbles.
